Swimathon Success: £3,450 Raised and Counting!

Following the incredible effort at our recent Swimathon, Mansfield Swimming Club is thrilled to announce that we’ve raised a fantastic £3,450 - a huge step forward in our mission to purchase new electronic timing equipment.

The Swimathon, which saw 48 swimmers of all ages take on the challenge of swimming as many lengths as possible in two hours, was a true showcase of club spirit and determination. Together, our swimmers covered a staggering 204,850 metres (nearly three times the original target) and now, thanks to the generosity of our supporters, that effort is being transformed into real progress for the club’s future.

A special thanks goes to Tony and Claire Light, whose dedication and organisation made the entire event run smoothly and successfully. Their hard work behind the scenes helped ensure everything flowed effortlessly on the day.

This funding milestone brings us significantly closer to upgrading our timing system, which will benefit all swimmers by enhancing the accuracy and professionalism of our competitions.

But we’re not stopping here! If you’d like to help us reach the finish line, please consider supporting our ongoing campaign via our Crowdfunder page.

A massive thank you to everyone who swam, sponsored, volunteered, and cheered us on!
